National Football League. I have no fucking idea what's going on with just about anything any more. If London gets a football team it would mean Britain has joined the US. Yes, yes. Sounds stupid as hell, but the NFL is huge, the Olympics are already tanking without having taken place yet.
***Again, American football refers to the length of the ball and not that it is played with the foot, though it is in some cases -- field goals and punts it is indeed played with the foot*** Though you can always devise a fake play when one is going to use the foot. But whatever. I just thought it to be the canary in the coal mine or harbinger of Britain seeking to join up with the US and shit. Again, I got no idea.
Everything everywhere is in turmoil. There is an underlying reason.
A friend of mine from Australia insists that we, meaning the U.S. Australia and Canada, are still under the English crown, in spite of that "independence" thing back in the day. Something about the London Corporation. We are all "POMS" (Products of Mother England). I did some googling and it could be legit. Or not.
I agree with that. The US, the UK, Australia, NZ and Canada (to a degree) all share the same language. Other than that, I think that's about it. I guess you could insert Israel into there. But it is the standard language of Earth. Super strange.
